3rd round of the league cup and premier league opposition in arsenal. A regular fixture from 2001 to 2012 between the clubs and it's great to be back for one night. As usual if it's a draw at full time then it's straight to penalties. Bolton have never won at the Emirates Stadium. The last Bolton win was at Highbury. That fa cup match in 1994. 3-1. Team news. Still just the 18 players available with Osei-Tutu, Jones, Lolos, Mendes Gomes and Forrester out. With more important league games coming up away at Crawley on Saturday and Northampton on Tuesday the squad is expected to be rotated. Possible starting 11. Southwood. Forino Santos Johnston. Dacres-cogley Dempsey Matete Arfield Williams. McAtee Collins. Whatever happens it's a payday for the club and a chance for the players to test themselves against premier league opposition. Kick off is 7.45 live on sky sports plus.

It's good to have you on board Peter. Pity about the scoreline but at least we have one back.

Hi SWIE. Unfortunately I had a stroke and 6 months later the first of 2 heart attacks. That's why I was off for so long. Football fell down my list of priorities. I am doing as well as anyone could reasonably expect under the circumstances though.

I'm sorry about that, I hope everything goes well for you from now onwards.
I had prostrate cancer but I've had treatment and everything is looking good. The hospital signed me off earlier this year.
We will speak again soon but my wife has gone to bed so I better join her.
Good night all.

Jesus absolutely needs a goal.
He is trying too hard.
